https://www.france24.com/en/europe/20250301-macron-reopens-debate-on-european-nuclear-umbrella-after-trump-zelensky-showdownFrench President Emmanuel Macron said he was ready to "open the discussion" on a possible future European nuclear deterrent if Europe wanted to move towards "greater autonomy" in its defence capabilities.
"I am available to open this discussion...if it allows [us] to build a European force," Macron told Portuguese TV RTP in an interview he posted on X on Saturday. "There has always been a European dimension to France's vital interests within its nuclear doctrine."
Macron's comments came as Europe grapples with US President Donald Trump's willingness to embrace Russian diplomacy and the implications of an extraordinary clash between Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and Trump at the White House on Friday.

Ukraine may yet get its nukes back,
